wow. nice looking car! would be hard pushed to choose between it and the baby Aston. check previous postings and you'll see that i was disappointed by the Aston's styling and i still standby this. but the jag is a nice looking car. still, i'd prefer a db9!

Seen a few near the Jag plant - very Astonish - awesome looking cars.

Saw 3 of them (or maybe it was 2 and I saw one of them twice!) on the Snake pass 2 weeks ago. Look good! Just not sure about those headlamps ...

There's a navy blue one parked by my office in Chancery Lane, London. I did a double-take when I first saw it, didn't think it was out yet. It looks lovely, very Aston like..although not sure about the headlights... made me think of the Hyundai coupe! Give me a 911 over one of these but nice all the same.

I saw a delivery transporter full of them in the week before Christmas being taken to the local dealer (Ascot). I wasn't too sure about the rear lights, but overall it looked nice.

Thanks Elliot

So now I can go off, buy myself an old XKR for five grand, and wait for this new beauty to become affordable after a few years of depreciation

Spotted a red XK, new shape nailing it along the main road near Leamington Spa, about a fortnight ago. Not sure if it was a test car - they do use that road for a route... didn't half shift though!

Made the cars it was overtaking look like they'd stopped... and the noise! I could hear it over my music in my car, with the windows up... and I drive a noisy diesel too. Very nice.

Saw one around the same time on the M6 motorway, with all the black protective stuff round it, He even tried to show me how fast it was, but my car had just had a new turbo, injectors etc, So I couldnt play.

Ah-ha, not just me. Having a quick scan of the new issue of Evo this afternoon, I was thinking the headlights have come from the Hyundai BakedBean circa 1999.
